Formscan - HEROIQUE DE MAULDE showed determination to win at Doncaster on his first start since undergoing wind surgery and, assuming he can deliver to the same level on the back of just a 16-day interval, he could be hard to beat again. Baron De Midleton concedes 5lb to the selection but is still respected, while previous C&D winner Ritson had a legitimate excuse last time out (lost his left-fore shoe and suffered a slight over reach) and may bounce back.
